Complete wierdo at the train station this morning

More or less. What would you have said?
No you wasn't (werent). I've been waiting here for ten minutes and you was (were) not in front of me. In fact you just joined the line a moment ago."

your using words out of context so it makes you sound stupid, i do it aswell though i think its because i grew up in a rough area and thats how people spoke, im just so used to people talking like that.

my wife is always bitching at me for it i cant even get away with "5 minute" without her shouting "MINUTES" but its okay for her to say "gan toon" and all that geordie BS that sounds worse.

aparently thats okay though because thats how people speak up here :rolleyes:

btw im also not alowed to let slip the odd swear word but her fat mamoth friend can F and blind all she likes around my kid.....
 
Also had a run in with a weirdo today. 4am and I here someone knocking furiously on my front door, every now and again pausing and going to town on the doorbell. As first I was in a daze as I lay there in bed, then suddenly it dawned on me that this was not a dream, and something was really there. I led there for 5 minutes listening to it, waiting for it to stop, but instead it got louder and more rapid, culminating in what must been a 30 second long blast of the doorbell. Wtf. No was I was going to open the door cos it was obviously some deranged psychopath who would probably stab me, so I decided if it hadn't stopped in 10 mins I'd call the cops. It did stop... but whoever it was started banging on my downstairs window instead. Mustve kept it up for a good 15 mins then dissapeared. Real weird stuff.

should have looked out the window? Gone down there and laid some smackdown on his face for waking you? I know I would have done.
 
Swansea is rough as ****, and my name isn't killa ken so I don't have such an intimidating aura.

Its not that hard to look out the window though is it, what if it was some woman whose just been raped, being chased, or someone trying to get help because they've found someone unconcious or something. Admitted screaming for help might work, or trying another door. But I would have looked at least, if its a dude with a scythe, a baseball bat, a huge knife, call the police, if its someone with blood all over them, call the police, and an ambulance.


People are generally weird, train stations all seem to have weird people as the faceless crowds who all look a like, wear the same crap and just walk along quietly don't get remembered while the weirdo's do things that stick in your mind so the trains seem full of them.



AS for grammer, 5 minute isn't slang, its just improper use of a normal word. Slang, is just that, its used as a substitute, it might not be the proper way to talk in say a formal setting but is fine for anywhere else. 5 minute, or we was doing something, just sounds retarded.
